Claire marks five weeks on June 6! Here are her stats now:
Weight: 8.5 pounds
Height: 22 inches
Hair: Dark brown
Eyes: Dark blue (we think)
Two days ago, she started smiling back when I smile at her! It's been so fun! She doesn't do it every time...she has to be in a great mood. But there is nothing better in the world then when she smiles back at me! (Poor Nate is still waiting to get a smile out of her! :( ) She is also giggling in her sleep and it is SO cute.
Of course, she still loves to stick out her tongue. When she's awake, she does it almost constantly!
Claire is really good at focusing with her eyes and she'll follow our faces back and forth. She absolutely loves the mobile in her crib. She'll choose one of the hanging butterflies and will follow it around and around. She also goes cross-eyed a lot...hence the picture... :)
She is also starting to talk more. She coos, gurgles, and grunts all the time. It's so fun to listen to her. She also loves it when mom and dad sing to her. When she is having a hard time going to sleep, I'll sing her the song from Mary Poppins "Stay Awake" and it almost always does the trick.
It's getting more and more fun being a mom. Having Claire react to us makes me so happy! She's such an angel!

Good Pics Lis!
It's fun to see them.
Now you've got to remember to keep that up for every child you have, no fair favoring Claire.
She's only going to get more and more fun.
